IT TAKES 900 LOAVES OF BREAD A DAY FOR SOLDIERS
To Say Nothing of 100 Gallons of Milk, 250 Cans of Peas, 25 Bushels of Potatoes, 10 Bushels of Carrots, and 1800 Heads of Cabbage—The Day's Rations of Beans are a Good Fraction of a Ton
Preparing meals for the S.A.T.C. men of the University is a gigantic task, if you ask the mess sergeant or any of the kitchen police.
Nearly 2,000 men are fed daily at the big mess hall down near the armory. Supplies must be bought in great quantities and sufficient food for all of the hungry student soldiers cooked before each meal.
Figures as to the approximate amount of food consumed each day are interesting. Nine hundred loaves of bread are bought daily. Beans are baked by the 100 pound lots, usuallyy 200 or 300 pounds. Other items for the ordinary giant menu include 250 cans of peas or corn for each meal, 100 gallons of milk a day, 25 bushels of potatoes, 10 bushels of carrots, 1200 to 1800 heads of cabbage.
Mess Kitchen Convenient
Early in their military life, S.A.T.C. men are learning the meaning of the term "kitchen police"from actual practice. Forty-six men are detailed to help prepare meals and keep the mess hall in order. They spend at least a day at a time at this work.
No kitchen could be kept more neat or clean than that of the mess hall, or could be kept more modern. Automatic ice water tanks, electric bread cutters, potato peelers and dishwashers are some of the modern conveniences which simplify the work there.
Mess hours are 6:30 a.m., 11:30 to 12:45 and 5:15 p.m. The boys are always punctual for meals, including breakfast. To the question "what happens to the man who doesn't get down to breakfast on time?"the mess sergeant will answer with a grim smile, "He to breakfast on time—in the army."
Must Eat Everything
And no matter whether he likes the food or not, the student soldier eats everything on his plate or go without meals. Food left from one meal is saved for the next. Strict conservation prevails in the S.A.T.C. as well as in other camps.
A special mess room for officers has been built just off the main dining hall.

DEAN AURNER ASKS GIRLS TO CONTRIBUTE TO FUND
Mrs. Nellie S. Aurner, dean of women, addressed the girls at Currier Hall, Thursday evening relative to the financial drive for the Welfare organizations that is to launched next week. Mrs. Aurner praised the self sacrifice of the allies and declared that America has the great privilege to be a contributor to the reconstruction of the world. That Iowa shall maintain her reputation as the first one to go over the top will necessitate an average contribution of ten dollars by each girl. "Some of us will need to give more to make up for this from whom ten dollars is humanly impossible.'

ALMA MATER, IOWA
(Tune, Materna)
The following song was written by O.H. Brained one of the most active alumni of the institution. Mr. Brainerd was graduated with the class of '76.

Our Alma Mater, Iowa,
Our lives are in thy hands,
Our destinies are linked to thee,
By more than iron bands.
Thy sons and daughters, we rejoice
In freedom thou dost give,
We never may forget that thou
Has taught us how to live.

Oh, Iowa, dear Iowa
We lift our songs to thee,
We pledge our faith, our loyalty,
Wherever we may be.
That we may help the right to win,
And help defeat the wrong,
We turn to thee with fondest hope
For inspiration strong.

Then here's to thee, our Iowa,
Our Alma Mater, thou,
We lay our offerings at thy feet,
Our wreaths upon thy brow;
And we, about to live, salute,
And face the coming test,
Content to feel that thou dost know
That each will do his best.
